Radio Replacement

If the radio is replaced, the new radio must have the setup procedure performed. Refer to Radio Setup .

Remote Control Door Lock Receiver Replacement - Copy and Paste TPM Information

This procedure will learn the TPM information to the new RCDLR using the Copy and Paste function on the scan tool. This procedure will extract the TPM Tire Type information as well as the sensor data from the existing RCDLR prior to its replacement and store this information in the scan tool. After RCDLR replacement and SPS programming, the tire type and sensor data stored in the scan tool is written to the new RCDLR, negating the need to perform the tire type setup and sensor learn procedure.

This procedure should be considered as the first programming choice when replacing an RCDLR. The Copy and Paste procedure eliminates the possibility of incorrectly inputting the tire type or learning stray TPM sensors.

  1. Using a scan tool, navigate to the Copy and Paste TPM Information procedure and copy the existing TPM information from the RCDLR using the outline below. Follow the on-screen instructions after selecting Step 1: Vehicle Control Systems Module Setup Remote Control Door Lock Receiver Copy and Paste TPM Information Step 1
  2. At this point, install the new RCDLR.
  3. Program the RCDLR - Refer to «Service Programming System (SPS)»(ref-302118-S04909991502008102100000) .
  4. Using a scan tool, navigate to the Copy and Paste TPM Information procedure to paste the stored TPM information using the outline below. Follow the on-screen instructions after selecting Step 2: Vehicle Control Systems Module Setup Remote Control Door Lock Receiver Copy and Paste TPM Information Step 2
  5. Program the keyless entry transmitters - Refer to «Transmitter Programming»(ref-302136-S31087148732008102100000) .

Remote Control Door Lock Receiver Replacement - TPM Sensor Learn

This procedure will learn TPM information to the new RCDLR by manually inputting the tire type using the scan tool and performing the TPM sensor learn. This procedure should be performed if the above Copy and Paste procedure can not be completed. An example of this would be an RCDLR that is unable to communicate with the scan tool and is required to be replaced.

  1. RCDLR Programming-Refer to «Service Programming System (SPS)»(ref-302118-S04909991502008102100000) .
  2. Keyless Entry Transmitter Programming-Refer to «Transmitter Programming»(ref-302136-S31087148732008102100000) .
  3. Tire Type Setup: Install a scan tool. Select Remote Control Door Lock Receiver under Module Setup in the Vehicle Control System menu. Select Tire Type/Pressure Selection. Follow the on-sceen instructions.
  4. Tire Pressure Monitoring Sensor Learn-Refer to «Tire Pressure Sensor Learn»(ref-302162-S25881113182008102100000) .
